My reason for living here is very simple: People think harlem and they automatically think the whole place is gangsta which may be true in some areas, but not all.
I live in the Columbia University area, which means its got great buildings, new condos, views, shops and bars, lots of guards on the streets, a couple blocks from central park, and very close to midtown still (I live 5-10 minutes on the subway to midtown). If you look at my pic below, I live in the upper left corner of central park.
but only a couple blocks from the hood which also has its advantages:
ie: the culture, the cheap(er) food/shops/groceries, and APARTMENTS!!! I pay only $1500 a month, whereas an apartment my size in midtown would easily go for $2000-3500.
Ask jenn about where I live. Its half hood and half college/rich/liberal etc. lol I could kick someones ass while writing a book about it. |
yeah your right, i have some family in the greenwich village area but never really took a trip to harlem
